SAN FRANCISCO — This R2-D2 jet won't fly to Cloud City, but it will probably reach Tokyo.

Japan's All Nippon Airways said Thursday it has entered into a 5-year 'Star Wars Project' that will start with a 787-9 Dreamliner dressed in the livery of R2-D2, the chirping robot from Star Wars film franchise. All Nippon says the jet will start flying on international routes this autumn.
